Phase 2
When the “head and tail wraps” count is completed, the
conveyor restarts and product length wrapping begins.
The product moves forward and engages photocell (B2),
the outfeed presser lowers on the product while the
machine continues to wrap the product.
Important
The overlapping of film wraps is defined by the
conveyor speed, the slewing ring speed as
well as by the film width.
Phase 3
The product moves forward disengaging photocell (B1),
the infeed presser rises, the “tail positioning” timer starts.
When the timer count is over, the outfeed conveyor stops,
the “head and tail wraps” count starts; the tail part of the
product is wrapped while the clamp advances to hook the
film at the last wrap of the rotary ring.
